34A fruitful land into a salt desert, For the wickedness of them that dwell therein.
35He turneth a wilderness into a pool of water, And a dry land into watersprings.
36And there he maketh the hungry to dwell, That they may prepare a city of habitation,
37And sow fields, and plant vineyards, And get them fruits of increase.
38He blesseth them also, so that they are multiplied greatly; And he suffereth not their cattle to decrease.
39Again, they are diminished and bowed down Through oppression, trouble, and sorrow.
40He poureth contempt upon princes, And causeth them to wander in the waste, where there is no way.
